End-of-line leak tests were not catching some brake caliper defects. Process anomalies such as small debris pieces, or “chips” in the seal groove were resulting in very subtle defects which were impossible to detect. Caliper defects were being discovered by vehicle assembly plants or by customers, which led to expensive warranty repairs and productivity disruptions. The manufacturer required a solution with minimal tooling and fixturing modification that would reliably improve caliper quality without affecting yield.

A manufacturer’s subjective method of testing rubber-to-metal bond using an application of tensile or shear load and observation of surface defects was missing defects. Sciemetric’s advanced integrity analysis system provides a cost efficient platform for testing, taking inputs from existing load cell and displacement transducers and working with additional sensors to detect even the most subtle non-visible bond defects ruptures.
